3rd Pick: Jermaine O Neal
4th Pick: Josh Smith
5th Pick: Adam Morrison
6th Pick: Luke Ridnour

The other teams also got good players so don't hope for nothing more then playoffs.

nice draft, ive found that Bosh plays alot better and wins more MVP's than Lebron in the years to come. Morrison will develop into a great scorer with 90 ish overall. But still, your league will be extremley boring

that was only the draft. after that i traded jermaine o neal for charlie villuneva for cap room. i then traded him for rudy gay and a draft pick. then i also got tyrus thomas. my aim was to get a young team of stars and i think that i have

I made a fantasy draft just for fun. I had the 16th pick and I got... LeBron!!! :shock:

First pick was Arenas... Also I find it stupid that guys like Shaq are one of the first picks. He has like 1 or 2 maybe 3 solid years left in him. Who would take him as his first pick starting a dynasty?

My original draft

1st Amare
2nd TMAC? why was the cover boy still there
3rd:Hinrich
4th Chris Wilcox
5th Quentin Richardson
6th Deron Williams

After that i just went with illini players/players i like...

How the heck JO is still on the board in the 3rd round??

by **Oznogrd** on Mon Oct 23, 2006 5:41 am

anthony, who knows? i'm amazed i got hinrich 3rd round and tmac second...the CPU is terrible at drafting because i decided one day to let it do it for me and i would just tough it out with the team they gave me. I had Shaq and bosh and that was about it....

Eh if I ever do a fantasy draft I like to have a pick in the 25-30 range, it makes things more interesting.

Either that or I try to build a team with a theme (stockpile a bunch of defensive players, try to build a high scoring team, etc.)...

Meh that's just me.

In live 06, it was the same.
I drafted baron davis first ( :roll:

), jermain o'neal second, richard jeferson third, and i also had villanueva, bowen, mike miller, mashburn and reggie miller. But the rarest thing was that in one team there was KG, Tmac, and a created player (82 overall, shooter) :shock:

The CPU is extremely bad when it comes down to drafting players. C always go first. The following positions are drafted by chance. Sometimes you get great PF's in the 3rd or 4th round but all the Guards are gone. And sometimes it's just the other way round.

by **nets4life** on Tue Oct 24, 2006 9:44 am

Maybe one of the reasons why the CPU drafts weird in 07 is because theyr drafting for team chemistry. Cos whenever ive done a fantasy draft most of the team's chemistry is 75%-100% whilst mine is 0%-50%

by **Oznogrd** on Tue Oct 24, 2006 9:49 am

yeah i wanted to bring up the the team chemistry thing...i'm 8-9 years into my dynasty and my chemistry is in the shitter, but i cant figure out why...i dont know what half the shit the players bitch about even means (what the fuck do they mean they're concerned about roster stability?) Sure i understand market and playing time but some of them i'm just like "eh fuck you" Like "i wanna play in a bigger market" for my rated 99 4 time MVP Amare Stoudamire....what the hell? why?

by **nets4life** on Tue Oct 24, 2006 9:54 am

EA are trying to make it more realistic, Amare is wanting to play in a bigger market for more attention and more money. Its a fucking annoying feature i know. In one of my dynasties i had about 6 years of 25% chemistry and won 2 titles then when my star player KG retired it went up to 80-90% but when i looked in the team chemistry thingi it said he was by far the most likeable guy

by **Oznogrd** on Tue Oct 24, 2006 12:39 pm

i just signed a rated 78 undrafted SG....holy hell how did the game miss that one? Anyway...I'm almost to the point where im going to be rebuilding, i'm solely waiting on amare and bosh to retire, and then i'm in deep trouble...considering i win championships, my crappy players want like 30 mil, and i tell them to fuck off

by **e-mat** on Tue Oct 24, 2006 11:57 pm

The chemistry is really a nice feature but it's stupid. Tracy McGrady hates every one of the Rockets. :roll:

Ryan Bowen wants to get an opportunity to be the leader of the team... :shock:

When a player is unplayably injured, he wants to get more minutes.... Overall though I like the feature. (Y)

edit: one more thing - I hate how the chemistry contradicts itself. For example a player can have these two comments - "We have a very talented team this year and I think we can go deep in to the playoffs." and "We need to overhaul the roster..."

by **Oznogrd** on Wed Oct 25, 2006 2:12 am

exactly e-mat....also, wouldnt you think if you kept a team together for long periods of time the chemistry would go up? that doesnt seem to be the case...
